What’s the steam oiler on top the coil box hooked up to ?

1875 Edward S Clark (Boston) steam launch engine. Note, It's an upside-down engine, piston rod comes out the top of the cylinder.

I would almost be willing to bet you have a New Holland hit and Miss or two hidden up there somewhere ! Another of the things I wish I’d kept instead of selling to buy something else 😂

Let’s see, had my underlifter two barrel 410/28 gun worked on to be tournament ready. Lou Rotelli put a new stock on it and did some tweaking to the internals. Picked up a 32” VHE 12g live bird gun. Fits like a glove!! Also picked up a 28” 16g VH. Did some clean up and trigger work to it and it is now my 16HL event Gun. Picked up a GH 28” 12g with fishtail top-lever early in the year too. Picked up some Lefevers too, but that’s it for the Parker guns.

Mike, have you shown pictures of this gun here on the forums? I'd love to see that!

Dave, maybe I’ll get some posted along with its story. Nothing fancy, just a solid gun to shoot. ��

You're going to need more than "some" Lefevers to bring the UDC back to rural PA. Especially ones you can shoot. Keep looking. Let the games begin.

Mills nice job 8 parkers, maybe 9! I always take comfort in knowing others are as active collectors as me! Craig the PH pictures are in the Restoration section of the forum.

A CHE 20, GH 20, and PH 20. The CHE and GH each took wild birds on the first shots fired from them. I'm still looking for the right time and place to use the PH.

I also found original consecutive copies of the first several years of Wilbur Parker's American Sportsman from the early 1870s. Fascinating reading, and like entering a time capsule for period guns and shooting.

A few left, and a few came.......
A GH 12 and a PH 12 found new homes, and then I added a Roundel engraved CHE, a Bernard barreled CH, and a very petite 1 frame CHE 12 being restocked, and a nice condition DHE 12.
